1. Unzip the bbdkp zip file into /store/mods/
2. Launch automod, choose the install link. this will copy all the files, perform the necessary edits.
3. Copy these folders to the images folder : this is not done by Automod because it can't handle it due to the size
from="root/images/class_images/*.*" to="images/class_images/*.*"
from="root/images/bossprogress/*.*" to="images/bossprogress/*.*"
from="root/images/roster_portraits/*.*" to="images/roster_portraits/*.*"
from="root/images/roster_classes/*.*" to="images/roster_classes/*.*"
4. Then surf to /install, and you will see the Imul installation page. This will install the acp modules, database tables, and clear the caches (template, theme, imagesets)

release 1.1.0 rc4 was a big cleanup job to come in line with phpbb coding guidelines, as much of the code came from different sources (eqdkp to name a few), and it was quite hard to integrate it in phpbb.
i think that we covered the base there, except one :

renaming all table prefixes to come in line with phpbb because now there is a separate table prefix. doing that would have big repercussions on people who already installed bbDKP, so it should be part of the umil update script and thus i deferred that.

So, the next release will be numbered 1.1.1, and so on till we reach 1.2..

Functionally, we'd like to add the following features :

multi-game, meaning that you can choose more than 1 game to install in the umil screen. this will mean a big change in database schema.

new loot distribution systems. currently there's the two classics, namely

standard dkp

zerosum dkp

we'd like to add

EPGP (Efford - Gear Reward Points)

Time-based DKP

DKP caps (50% dkp gain after n dkp level

DKP depreciation : after n time you lose x % dkp

phpbb account integration with game memberlist table. so then you can see your toon data inside your ucp, and also more security roles.

about the boss progress page :

i think it needs to be a plugin with "data packs" per game. meaning that people can then pick the data packs they want and install it to bbDKP.

currently, the "images" folder contains about 20mb of custom artwork, for six games. it's too much and Automod chokes on it. so we need to split it.

i'd like to update the boss offset table directly using Raidtracker or the raid acp. this way, an accurate progress can be done. currently, you have to manually type the date at which you raided boss x.

modernising the presentation, removing

some stray html in the php files.

we need more game data. Lotro, EQ, EQ 2, Aion, Vanguard, FFXI are all incomplete

about the other plugins :

About the Raidtracker plugin : once we have other loot systems in core, these should be added to the functionality of RT.

Armory plugin : not much to say, it works and that's good.

bbTips plugin : i would like to make it standalone, and add a character bbcode.

Apply plugin : remove the html posting, change to bbcode posting and move the character lookup to bbtips.

Raid planner : i'm thinking of porting the PHPRaid package to phpbb. as such, that would be an entirely new mod.
